Either you’re a vegetarian, vegan or even a meat lover these juicy broccoli mushroom burgers are for sure a hit for everyone. Super easy to make, always comforting and full of good nutritions!
Some call them patties or fritters, we call them burgers cause they really fulfill your cravings for any burger. Veggie burgers are usually made of chickpeas or beans. These green fellas are made of broccoli and mushrooms. It’s the broccoli that gives them the real bite and the mushrooms add a chewy feel like you experience when you eat a meat burger. Combine these two ingredients with onion, egg ( or an egg replacer, read further) herbs and spices and you’re almost done!
This broccoli mushroom burgers makes a perfect (hangover) lunch or diner. Eat it with salad, or place this juicy burger into a beetroot bun with spinach, avocado, lemon mayonaise and sweet potato chips aside. Yummy right? It’s filling, tasteful, nourishing, and most important super tasty and easy to prepare!
Best egg replacer for vegan burgers
If you’re vegan you’ll need to replace the egg. Eggs are binders that glue all the ingredients together and make perfect shaped burgers. Instead of the egg you combine one tbsp of ground flax seed with 3 tbsp of warm water. Let it sit for a few minutes until it gels and then add it to the mixture.
Broccoli Mushroom Burgers
Equipment
- Philips HR7629 Food Processor
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 300 grams broccoli
- 200 grams mushrooms
- 1 egg or egg replacer ( 1 tbsp flax seeds with 3 tbsp of warm water)
- 80 grams flour
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp curcuma
- 1 tsp curry powder
- 1/2 onion
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 handfull of parsley and coriander
Instructions
- Cut the mushrooms in small pieces. Rinse the broccoli and cut them in very small pieces so you'll be able to make firm burgers. Chop the onion.
- Heath up a little bit of oil in a baking pan. Bake the shopped mushrooms until soft and set aside.
- Add the onion mushrooms and broccoli to a large bowl. Press the garlic above the bowl and add the spices and parsley and coriander. Flavor with a pinch of pepper and salt. Add the egg or egg substitute and the flour and mix it all together with your hands.
- Cover a plate (big enough for 5 burgers), with parchment paper. Make 5 to 6 burgers and put them on the plate covered with parchment paper. You could keep them in the fridge for a bit if you want to bake them later.
- Heath up 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a baking pan. Add the patties and fry them until both sides are golden brown. Flip them once or twice.
- They can be served as patties with a salad or as a veggie burger in bun.
- Choose your favorite bread, sauce and topping (fresh spinach, avocado, pickles, red onion are our favorites).
Notes
- The white sauce is a simple mix of mayonaise, pepper and a squeeze of lemon. Of course you can choose your own favorite burger sauce of vegan mayonaise!
